    New to the Lucid Family - From Model X to Gravity Dream Edition

    Speaking as an engineer, it's remarkable to me how often engineers ignore the basics of human factors. At work we just moved into a new office building. There are pretty intuitive designs to cue people whether they should push a door in, or pull it out. Our new office completely ignores that...

    Should I make a reservation?

    The short answer is: nobody can say for sure. The longer answer is: They seem to be sequencing through the various color options. Green was first, black next, and white is anticipated soon. Any other color might well take you past the end of September, but it's hard to say for sure. They've...

    Gravity Dream Edition in Miami

    Sounds like there's a good story to be told there!

    LUCID Gravity Lease vs Finance

    It's been asked before whether Lucid's leases allow penalty free early buyouts, but I don't think I've seen an answer to that question. While I want the HUD, if I could get an early lease buyout and the $7500 discount on a GGT without HUD delivered before the end of September, I'd likely jump...

    LUCID Gravity Lease vs Finance

    I do understand that manufacturers have long aggressively subsidized their financing, both for auto loans and for leases. While I've never leased, I have had two 0% auto loans. I walked in able to pay cash, but it's hard to turn down a 0% loan. In an odd way, financing subsidies seem to...

    Gravity Delivery Discussion

    It's hard to imagine that it wouldn't A black cloth ought to do the trick. I assume that the HUD reflections are visible whether the HUD is on or off? Looking at the photo @hydbob posted, I can see from the shadows that the Sun is pretty high in the sky, but not directly overhead. Maybe...

    Lease Gravity

    There's been a lot of discussion about lease returns for Airs, and how frustrated people are with Bank of America. If BofA (or some other bank now) is the owner of the leased vehicles, perhaps the end-of-lease is more about the Bank's legal status in the state than Lucid's? Just wildly...

    New to the Lucid Family - From Model X to Gravity Dream Edition

    Yeah, the inability to open the door when you're inside is a pet peeve of mine about Teslas. More of a problem in the dark than in the daylight, and obviously a first-world problem. But every time I run into it, I think "jeeze, why fix something that wasn't broken?" If you own a Tesla, you...

    Q2 ‘25 Production/ Deliveries

    For the first 6 months of the year, they effectively were not ramping Gravity at all, only beginning deliveries right at the end of June. I think no one has any clue what their production and delivery rate will be now that they've started delivery. It's entirely possible that they're...

    Dang, I was hoping they're going to switch to white!

    Can you haul a 4'x8' sheet of drywall?

    That's my plan for the Gravity I have on order. If I didn't have dogs, I might well seek a smaller vehicle than a Gravity. On the flip-side, the low entry height is big plus as the dogs get older.

    Can you haul a 4'x8' sheet of drywall?

    I imagine the Gravity will complain endlessly if you drive with the rear door open. I probably wouldn't want to do it at all at highway speeds.

    Gravity spotted testing on Nürburgring Nordschleife Racetrack (Germany)

    I'm still looking forward to the Gravity Sapphire announcement!

    Gravity Bugs / Issues

    She'll let me buy the car I want, but then I'll never hear the end of it if she finds it annoying. And we are essentially a one car family (I do have an ICE pickup truck for hauling and transporting raw materials for my workshop).

    Gravity Bugs / Issues

    She's "opinionated" about technology that doesn't work seamlessly. As I'm the IT consultant for all technology in our home, I have to cope with her ranting about this sort of thing on a semi-regular basis.

    Gravity Bugs / Issues

    Yeah, I'm in the same boat. I'm an engineer, and I'm happy enough to roll with the punches when it comes to the teething problems Lucid vehicles may have. But my wife is a different story. She's likely to be unwilling to carry a backup key in case the main key doesn't work. Particularly...

    Gravity Bugs / Issues

    For those of us who don't yet have a Lucid, could you clarify what the difference is between the "key" and the "key card" you're talking about?

    Gravity Delivery Discussion

    I hear OC Detailing does great work. But when you go, don't go alone. Their obsession with dead bodies is a bit worrisome. :eek:

    Lucid Earth (midsize crossover): ready by summer 2027?

    I think that the CEO of Lucid was just interviewed, and said that the midsize will launch at the end of 2026, and actually ship to customers in 2027. But as a another commenter noted, if they keep to that timeline, you might find that mid-year '27 has only more expensive models available.

    QUESTION Will HUD be operable on first DE deliveries in May

    We've seen some reports of some Sun conditions causing a visible reflection off the HUD display. For those early owners who've seen this, can you describe what Sun angle causes this to occur? When I get a chance to test drive a HUD equipped Gravity, I'm curious to try and reproduce the...
